- Key Update: Modern Warfare 4 is the next entry in the Call of Duty franchise, and the release date has been announced.
- Status: Confirmed
- Last Verified: June 5, 2026
- Quick Answer: Modern Warfare 4 will launch in October, one of the earliest release windows for the franchise.
Modern Warfare 4 is the next game in the Call of Duty franchise, with Infinity Ward back as the leading development studio. This will be the studio's first game since the change in leadership, as Mark Grigsby and Jack O'Hara took on the role of studio heads after the release of MW2 in 2022.
Now that the countdown is on, here is everything you need to know about the game's release date.
When Does Modern Warfare 4 Come Out?
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is scheduled to come out on October 23, 2026. This is within the franchise's usual release window, but on the earlier side, as the yearly titles release either late October or early November.
We could assume that this is due to Grand Theft Auto 6 releasing in November, and almost all studios are avoiding releasing their games in that month for obvious reasons.
What Platforms Is Modern Warfare 4 On?
Modern Warfare 4 will be available on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. As you can see, the title is leaving the last-gen consoles behind, becoming the first game in the franchise to do so.
On top of that, Microsoft will make good on its promise, and Call of Duty is returning to the Nintendo ecosystem. This will be the first game released on a Nintendo console since the release of Call of Duty: Ghosts in 2013 for the Wii U.
